Got a dog? Like fireworks? Keep them apart

The days following the Fourth of July are some of the busiest all year for animal shelters, as dogs frightened by fireworks take off and go missing, according to the Humane Society of America.

The Humane Society offers the following tips for keeping your dog safe – and sane – in spite of the “pops” and “booms” outside during the summertime holiday:


Pet of the week: Winston

Winston was born April 16. He was part of a litter of five kittens Rainbow Rescue received from a garage in north Minneapolis. He and his siblings were covered in urine and gasoline.


Pet of the week: Lulu

The people who gave up Lulu when they moved didn’t have much time for her, and she likes a lot of attention. Petting, scratching, tummy rubs and brushing are the LuluLulucat’s meow.


Pets of the week: A trio of kittens

Thea, Barry and Muffin are part of just one of the many litters that have been born with Rainbow Rescue.


Pet of the week: Mister

Mister, a 2-year-old, 14-pound Chihuahua, was rescued from a puppy mill. Because of his past, he still needs help learning how to play, walking on a leash and being MisterMisterpart of a family. Mister is sweet, smart and friendly but still nervous when he meets new people.


Pet of the week: Brooke

Brooke is a little more than 2 years old.


Pet of the week: Maylon
